campaign to ease the negative effects of a
scandal or unfortunate incident such as an

propaganda campaigns initiated by

media backlash while easing consumer and

crisis communication plan that is customized
to the unique situation at hand and the
clients’ needs. In some cases, crisis
management includes drafting public
statements and media coaching for those

Crisis management can also be used to
respond to false information and educate the
public with factual information.
